Campbellsville University honored students, faculty and staff who have gone above and beyond their calling at the recent annual Honors and Awards Day in Ransdell Chapel. Awards were presented in categories of Special Awards, Academic Awards, Servant Leadership Awards, Honors Graduates, Alpha Chi, Who’s Who Among Students in American Universities and Colleges and Champions of Character.
“This university is one of excellence, built on servant leadership,” Dr. Michael V. Carter, president of Campbellsville University, said.

The last day of school is May 27 for Marion County Public School students, but district officials hope learning will continue throughout the summer.
The district is offering 12 different camps this summer with programs for students from kindergarten through high school.
“This is a new thing that we’re doing. We’re calling it the Summer Dream Academy,” said Todd Farmer, the MCPS federal programs director.

The infrastructure problem facing Marion County Public Schools is simple to explain, but it doesn’t have any easy solution.
The district has $49.6 million in unmet construction needs, according to the draft district facilities plan presented at the May 14 meeting of the Marion County Board of Education at Lebanon Elementary School.
At this time, however, the district’s bonding capacity is around $4 million, according to district officials.
